Polenta

Hello Friends,


Happy Tuesday! This is a quick post because I have an hour before I need to catch my bus. Now this recipe may be quick, but the finished product has polenta flavor ;) Okay I should stay away from ever making a joke like that again.... Okay where was I? Oh yeah! So this is a recipe leading up to another recipe so this is just a small step to the actual recipe, but don't get me wrong, polenta can be on it's own, it's great for someone with a vegetarian diet who needs an alternative to meet patties, gluten-free cakes, and well, polenta pizza, yes another pizza recipe will be out soon! Now, I don't know about you, but I LOVE pizza, but it's kinda hard to find at times :/ So, I resort to making it myself. But enough of that! Let's get back to the polenta!



  • 4 cups whole milk.
  • 1 tablespoon butter.
  • 1 cup yellow or white cornmeal. 
  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream.
  • Salt and pepper to taste. 
Bring the milk and butter to a boil. Slowly add the cornmeal while stirring, trying to not make lumps.
Cook for 25-30 minutes the polenta should be the thickness of over cooked oatmeal. Once the polenta is think enough, pour into a baking dish and refrigerate for 1 hour. Take out and cut into desired shapes and saute in olive oil until golden brown and enjoy as a side or whatever you want, maybe pizza? That recipe will be out tomorrow! 

Happy Cooking!
